I keep telling this to my GF and her kids about our older
chickens. They keep saying that certain ones can't be eaten because they are pets but others can be eaten when the time comes. My point is the
chicken was raised properly and well cared for in exchange for the eggs, but in the end does the chicken deserve to rot away in a hole in the ground or
should we dress it out when it is still healthy and make it into delicious soup? I think using every part as best as possible is much more respectful, and eliminates waste.
When the times comes people will eat those stray animals. Food is more important than "social norms".
